that looks mint :D
Excellent looking Nova Mike - as for the vents - look fine to me. As CP says if you like them keep them - v functional!
You're not too far from me - I live just west of Stirling in a little village called Balfron. Will have to get a wee Scottish meet me thinks although my Novas still very much a WIP!

From my understanding all gte's whether it was an e-reg or a h-reg were mk1's unless someones done a facelift, dont ruin it mate.......... hehehe.
Love the gloss black skirts and the black stripe on the bumpers to go with it, glad your keeping it original, personally i would go for some standard vauxhall alloys which ever you prefer to maintain that origional look baring the intierior.
Oh and agreed as your gonna be painting the front bonnet, loose the vents, this is what it could look like. :)
Still have to lower mine.

thanks for the comments! i think maybe a wee scottish meet could be on the cards once its finished!
ive decided to keep the vents, i really like them and theyre subtle enough, and vauxhall related, not to take away from the oriignal look im after. keeping the white rims too - i think ive got a good colour theme going with the red, white and black. Outside ive got red with white rims and gloss black bumper extensions + skirts (plus the sublte black pinstripe and window surrounds), inside ive got all the red painted metalwork, white cage and brace with black/red mats and black red seats. it'll turn out well in the end i hope. im having a plain bonnet sprayed up as a spare so if the vents look ghey ill swap it over.
More progress and pics to come soon
mikey thats one very sweet motor m8, impressed at the work your doing aswell shes sweet:thumb:
